Nude – 28-05-15 (sold)
A continuation of the roundism series. I particularly like this one because I like the pose and the fluidity that speaks. It’s a kind of zig-zag pattern that appeals to me. It’s with a private collector from the U.S.

A portrait of my distinguished colleague in art Julai Filament, drawn in Rotterdam, made in a live session at Rotterdam.
This surrealistic drawing was the cornerstone of this series for now. One drawing and three paintings would follow. The drawing is with a private collector from France now.
Next to a pastel I did a graphite pencil drawing as a commission. I made her slightly surrealistic with the flow lines hovering over her body.
Variation nr 9 shows a further development and I felt more and more confident to show more. This one I found it to be a success and a prestudy for The Madonna of The Hague later that year.
This one already takes on the shape of today’s roundism. By blending / fading graphite I was able to get a very soft look.
A rather gloomy drawing but I liked doing it. It’s art deco rather than cubism I think.
Variation nr 3 being the roundism version. It’s in the U.S. now with a private collector.
A realistic pencil drawing that is with a private collector in the U.S. now.
A commission piece done in an impressionistic style with lots of clairobscur. I liked doing the blue in the hair at the left top side, showing the blue sky just outside the window.
A small park just around the corner where I sometimes wander about. I was struck by the light through the trees and the atmospheric depth.
This drawing was a commissioned one, depicting Maria Harp, a dutch-american jazz singer. Although it look cubistic I consider it not to be. Perhaps an extreme styling but the forms remain closed.
A more cubistic pastel drawing of Meyendel, following the previous ones. I like this ones better because I dared to put the cubes through the branches so the drawing becomes fragmented.
A combination of my love for American pin-up and 1950s celebrity Bettie Page and roundism.
Part of the sans titre series, being Lorett Young. She was an American moviestar and celebrity from the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s.
The sans titre series continued in 2015 in bigger dimensions (A4). This one is Ginger Rogers, american actress and starring next to Fred Astaire in fabulous dance movies in the 1930s). She is with a private collector now in the United States.
This is the pastel drawing of the prestudy I made in graphite a month before. I like the sun that sets not underneath the horizon but in a window somewhere in a cityscape.
A commission I took to render two people in an angular cubistic style, preserving realism in an impressionistic way.
Another cubistic tribute to Man Ray. This one is with a private collector from the United States.
A pastel in the roundism series. I think it might be the first one. Looking back I think I was very risky with the colour scheme but I wanted to enforce the jump-like figure. It’s owned now by a private Chinese collector.
Bettie Page became a sweet taste in my mouth so I rendered her in pastel in reds and greens.
A piece that stands on its own because I found it not to be a part of the ‘birth of new cubism series. In its sort it’s the birth of ’roundism’, sprouting from the ‘birth of new cubism’ series that survived right till this day.
Part of the ‘birth of new cubism series’. It’s now in the United States with a private collector of my works.
A view on Castle Duivenvoorde at Voorschoten, Netherlands. Not quite satisfied with this one. I think it’s too stiff.
A realistic / impressionistic pastel drawing of estate ‘Oosterbeek’, at The Hague, Netherlands.
Another drawing that marks the beginning of my search for a renewal of cubism.
The first of two drawings at one day on the same theme. This one is the minimalistic cubist one.
I was inspired by Mondriaan’s orange mill when I did this piece. I executed it in quite expressionistic colours.
